    Not to be a total asshole, but she had a 99% blockage, that has nothing to do with stress or being overworked, and the very first person in a management position she contacted told her to close the pharmacy window and get to the ER, which she ignored, wanting someone to come in and cover, first. This wasn’t about being overworked so much as someone who put keeping up with a store that was behind and understaffed already above their health, even when their superior told them not to.

    A pharmacist in 2021 could find three jobs within the range she could throw a rock. Don’t be dedicated to a company that isn’t taking care of you (I’m guessing this is why 3 of her coworkers had quit).
